MODERATORS
I love the idea. What's the first step we can take to accomplish that?
tough one. Its not something that comes up often. I'd say for starters we re-register to a new party to get some momentum going. DSA maybe.
Unfortunately then we're back to the FPTP problem. We don't have ranked choice voting, so there can only be two parties.
If we create a new one, we'll need to convince the moderates to join, and the 35% of people who call themselves Democrat like it's a sports team. That's quite a task.
The tea party tried this approach and failed. Then they gave up and infiltrated the Republicans instead. Now they are in charge, rebranded maga.
